Lost

[mousepod]

I love and hate this show. I dread the potential X-Files "wrap it all up" by wrapping up a few threads and ignoring the rest. I feel that this would have been a great miniseries, but might falter as a 5-year (did I imagine that?) arc.

Having said that - I haven't missed a single episode (yay dvr) and have developed a theory about the "secret".

A couple of key parts of my guess:
- There was no plane crash.
- All of the 'flashbacks' are suggested memories, not real ones.
- The "others" also part of the 'experiment' - they're not the puppetmasters.

There's more - but I won't bore you with it. So far, I haven't seen anything that directly refutes my hypothesis, which I've had since the beginning of the show.

When Ubergeek and I talked about it, he added a some observations that completely make sense (to my sci-fi warped mind, at least). I'll let him fill you in.

BTW, has anyone here seen "Dark City"? If not, you should.
